School Description and Mission Statement (Most Recent Year)

California Virtual Academy believes that, given a comprehensive and mastery-based curriculum, high expectations, access to technology, strong instructional support, a significant amount of off-line work, guidance from experienced teachers, and a strong commitment from parents or other caring adults, a well-conceived virtual education program will boost student achievement, serve the unique needs of students and families, and offer a new model for effective public education in the 21st century. The goals of our educational program include:

• Enabling all students to become self-motivated, competent and lifelong learners • Empowering the parent as the teacher through a guided program and training • Offering flexibility and choices to increase student interest in learning • Using a variety of lessons, activities, and modalities to improve student achievement • Striving for mastery of all skills by every student • Developing reflective learners • Developing technology literate students

Our Mission Statement The mission of the California Virtual Academies is to provide California students with an excellent education, grounded in high academic standards, which will help them to achieve their full academic and social potential. The core philosophy of the California Virtual Academies is that all young people can achieve academic excellence if they are provided rigorous instruction, high standards, informed guidance, and individual attention. Although we use the computer as a learning tool, we believe that education is primarily a human endeavor that relies on caring individuals, involved parents and committed teachers.

C. Engagement

State Priority: Parental Involvement The SARC provides the following information relevant to the Parental Involvement State Priority (Priority 3): • Efforts the school district makes to seek parent input in making decisions for the school district and each schoolsite. Opportunities for Parental Involvement (Most Recent Year)

Parents are an extremely important part of California Virtual Academies (CAVA). Parents will help us to evaluate the school’s program each year through meetings and surveys. Each year when surveyed parents in CAVA they state are more involved in their child’s education than at their previous school. Some parents will also serve as mentors to new families and families that are struggling with technology complications or curriculum problems. The mentors also supportive and encouraging with the day to day home education management. Parents will be given an opportunity to make their voices heard (both on-line and off-line) about their likes and dislikes about the school. Some parents will be asked to give critiques and/or testimonials about the program. Direct parental involvement is fundamental to the school’s success. Parents are involved from the start of the school year by researching our program and choosing to enroll in our program. Parents attend a registration conference and agree to the enrollment requirements. These show they are committed to being an active member of the education team for their student in our program. Parental involvement is enhanced by the fact that the school will be educating not only students but also its parents as well. Parents will be trained on the K12 instructional system. Parents will be taught how to be effective instructional coaches, under the guidance of qualified and certificated teachers. Many parents will learn how to use computers for the first time, become expert e-mail and Internet users and will be exposed to a content-rich curriculum, including classic literature, a comprehensive re-telling of the story of history, various musical genres, and great works of art. Parents will have a rich social networking experience with the school Facebook site, Yahoo Groups, and the Big Think Parent’s Lounge. We have many resources available both online and offline. There are ongoing Parent/Learning Coach training opportunities through K12 Speaker Series, Online School tutorials, School Effectively at Home workshops and staff presented Learning Coach workshops. We have a very detailed Parent Student handbook, Special Education handbook and CAVA New Parent Resource Guide. We have a Parent Mentor program to provide the ultimate one on one experience for Learning Coaches who would like a mentor to support them in their journey. Parents are actively encouraged to participate in CAVA planning, organizational, Board of Directors, and other meetings. They are also encouraged to offer ideas and planning assistance with field trips, social events, and other outings. We have parent representatives on the CAVA school board and the School Site Council. Where available we have a Parent-organized leadership team at a Community Day site. We offer community building at the school level, the state level and nationally with other virtual academies. In this community it is just discovering the resource that best meets your needs. We have many layers of support in place, as well as opportunities for parent leadership.

The California Virtual Academy takes staff and student health and safety very seriously. Because the school will be a virtual school, there will be no need for a school building where classes are held on a daily basis. The administrative office currently complies with all ADA, OSHA, and local health and safety requirements. The school has obtained all necessary permits for these offices including a building and fire marshal inspection and/or a certificate of occupancy.

2013-14 School Accountability Report Card for California Virtual Academy at San Diego Page 11 of 14

Immunization forms and other pertinent medical records will be kept (confidentially) on file by the school administration. Parents are expected to ensure that their children obtain proper immunizations prior to matriculating pursuant to Chapter 1 (commencing with §120325) of Part 2 of Division 105 of the Health and Safety Code. The school may exempt students from enrolling who are not properly immunized pursuant to §48216 (a-c) of the Education Code. Those parents who are having difficulty obtaining immunizations for their children will be provided information on where to get immunized in their community. All pertinent and required health and safety documentation is collected at time of hire or enrollment as appropriate. Documentation is on file in the student’s records or employee records held in security at the Simi Valley, CA office. Copies of employee records and student records can be made available at the request of the School District. The school has drafted health and safety procedures that the school will follow to ensure the health and safety of pupils shall which include compliance with the criminal background check requirements described in Sections 44237 and 45125.1 of the Education Code.
